A search warrant was obtained from Wakefield Magistrates Court and police seized cannabis worth hundreds of pounds.

A full hydroponic set up was also taken by police.

Insp Ian Williams, of the Central neighbourhood police team, said: “The officers found a tent in the property which could house around 10 plants. “The plants were found drying out in bags so we got the product before it could be sold.”
